Hello its Walty again

Just wondering if anyone else experiences this odd little symptom with their dizziness. I have had constant vertigo for about 5 months now, but the vertigo feeling seems to be on its way out. I only notice it when im laying down or sitting still. But i still have this weird constant feeling of almost an overwhelming feeling in my head. Its extremely hard to explain. Not lightheadedness like im going to pass out but an overwhelming feeling (especially when I look around a room real fast) that just makes me close my eyes. Its very strange, like if i am sitting in a chair, I can't turn around and look at something. I have to get up and turn around otherwise I get this weird feeling. I get the same feeling when looking at store shelves sometimes. Someone has explained this to me this way: Your vestibular system is out of whack so your brain relies more on your vision and this feeling is just a sensory overload from your eyes. NOt exactly sure but this sounds right to me.

ANyone with any info? or also have felt this way?

its just really annoying and ruins a day pretty well. You dont feel up to much when you feel this way.

Hey

I can sympathyse with you on this. I've had constant vertigo for about 3 months now. My head does not feel right at all. I feel like I'm moving or falling when I'm not and my head feels bad all the time. I went to see an ENT today and he said it was not to do with the inner ear. I'm not convinced as all the dizziness started from ear infections. Did your vertigo just start one day or did you have ear problems?

You should go to your doctor and get it checked out.

I hope you get it sorted out soon.

Hi

...."ANyone with any info?"...

It is very well covered in:

..."Sensory Conflict and Other Causes of Dizziness: Etiology, Differential Diagnosis, and Management"...

Which is located on this board in the-- information archives--it is---the first one---after you click on the information archives post----it was written by a Professor of Optometry at Pacific Univ in Calif---it is an in depth discussion of this junk(vestibular injury)---from the vision prospective---interesting for this junk in general---but very interesting for those---that are experiencing vision problems.

:cool:
